Today marks the release of New Mutants #23 and Trial of Magneto #4, two unrelated issues set in the Krakoa era of X-Men that share thematic DNA looking at the paths to reformation and self-acceptance for Wanda Maximoff, the Scarlet Witch, and Amahl Farouk, aka the Shadow King. I’ll be exploring the parallels and differences in these well known characters journeys, and how current events are shaping where they might fit into mutantkind’s Krakoa and the Marvel Universe going forward. * Spoilers Follow * New Mutants #23 Writer: Vita Ayala Artist: Rod Reis Letters: Travis Lanham Trial of Magneto #4 Writer: Leah Williams Artist: Lucas Werneck and David Messina Colors: Edgar Delgado Letters: Clayton Cowles At the center of these stories we’ll look at how far mutant forgiveness extends, and what accountability looks like for Scarlet Witch and Shadow King. I’ll start with New Mutants and Amahl Farouk, primarily because this run is one of the best New Mutants runs, and easily one of my favorite X-Men comics in 2021. The Road to Redemption for a Shadow King Free Amahl Farouk In this issue, The OG New Mutants are trapped in a looping astral hell of the Shadow King’s making, until the lost club reach out and connect. Ayala continues to make great use of mutant technologies, the only writer to really do so, and Rod Reis’ psychedelia is on another level, as this creative partnership continues to perform as one of the absolute best at Marvel this year. Since inception in 1979’s Uncanny X-Men #117, Amahl Farouk and Shadow King have predominantly been seen as one and the same. Certainly in the earliest stages, I tied Farouk to Shadow King like you’d tie any Marvel character to their alias, Scott Summers is Cyclops, Kurt Wagner is Nightcrawler and on down the line. As time’s gone on though, we’ve seen Shadow King inhabit other human vessels, although the dark entity seems to always return to Farouk. What Ayala started doing – literally from the first issue of their New Mutants run – is separate Farouk and the Shadow King, in so far as it can be done. And not only that, but Ayala and Reis’ vision is to show how the Shadow King entity preyed on a young and grieving Farouk. Empathy for the Shadow King, a being feeding on hate and rage, has rarely been in the cards, but empathy for a manipulated child? That’s not so hard. New Mutants #23 is the culmination of that effort, with Farouk v King fully on display. These are competing owners of Farouk’s body on display, much like Legion and one his alters, or a character like Enchantress on the DC side. And it is decidedly different from traditional portrayals of the Shadow King / Farouk relationship, less symbioses and more overwhelming virus. After centuries of abuse, and stolen control, Farouk is ready to be free of the waning Shadow King. One of the more impressive aspects of what’s happening here with Farouk is how Ayala is drawing parallels and trauma from past points in New Mutants comics history. So you have Illyana sharing how her experiences trapped with Belasco in Limbo both relate to Shadow King trapping and manipulating young mutants, and without realizing it, how Shadow King manipulated a young Amahl Farouk centuries ago. At the same time, Karma has experienced the most first hand damage from the Shadow King entity, and has to weigh that trauma and desire for revenge as the team learns of the existence of a separate Farouk entity that’s nothing more than a scared, trapped child. There’s also a particularly nice moment of catharsis where the New Mutants are confronted with their greatest fears, Demon Bear, Shan’s family, James’ brother, Illyana’s demon form, and together assert “We are beyond this!” That’s the kind of momentum and breaking the rules that I want to see from X-Men comics in the Krakoa era. It’s both a victory chant, and an aspirational mantra for Amahl Farouk. By the end of the issue Amahl finally comes to the same conclusion: “The truth is that I am the master of my own choices,” a quote very reminiscent of Legion’s “I Rule Me,” from Si Spurrier’s work on the character. The final moment is Farouk double over weeping and saying “I’m so sorry.” The Krakoan for New Mutants #23 reads “What Is Deserved,” and it’s unquestionably one of the most challenging questions coming out of these issues. What do you do with an Amahl Farouk freed from the clutches of the Shadow King? Can Farouk even truly be freed? This is not uncharted territory in X-Men Comics. The Dark Phoenix has pulled Jean Grey into the genocide of an alien civilization, and Cyclops into the patricide of Charles Xavier. In both cases, both characters have been allowed to slide back into their familiar heroic roles – quite literally leading the Superhero arm of mutantdom in the Gerry Duggan and Pepe Larraz X-Men – but no

What is Inferno? The X-Men event series promises to deliver answer to many of the mysteries throughout the past two plus years of X-Men stories. Likewise, the theme of the event promos is that secrets, lies, and betrayals will rule the day, as allies, enemies, and leaders alike can’t be trusted. The mutant nation of Krakoa has offered the promise of paradise for mutantkind, but it’s likely that here in Inferno we’ll see that promises come burning to the ground. Marvel is perpetually teasing that an “Event changes everything,” but there’s a real sense with Inferno that it will genuinely change the landscape of what we can come to expect from X-Men comics in 2022.

In July 2019, writer Jonathan Hickman returned to the Marvel Universe after a nearly 4 year sabbatical to deliver House of X #1, a game-changing paradigm shift for Marvel’s X-Men comics. With collaborators Pepe Larraz, RB Silva, and Marte Gracia, Hickman completely reinvigorated X-Men and the fandom that surrounds it. After the massive success of House of X and Powers of X, Hickman turned to an ongoing X-Men series, set during the new status quo of the X-Men’s Krakoa era, a run that lasted from Fall 2019 through summer 2021. Looking back at the full run now, what did we learn, what mysteries still remain, and how effective was Jonathan Hickman’s X-Men as a whole? Before digging deep into the content, it’s essential to preface the conversation with the following: Jonathan Hickman’s post House/Powers X-Men comics are strikingly scattered, often to the point of feeling wholly disconnected. Over the course of about a year and a half (with a Covid pandemic disruption square in the middle), Hickman wrote or co-wrote 35 full issues of X-Men comics, including the 5 “Giant-Size” specials, and two very short teasers in Marvel Incoming #1 and Marvel 1000. In the below Comic Book Herald graphic, I’ve reconfigured the run into thematically connected parts, which you’ll quickly note is greatly different than publication order. Personally, I find it more enjoyable to read the comics like this, grouped into related segments, but admittedly this is with the benefit of having read the full run according to publication as the books were released. The major caveat w/ the above is I still think you’d want to read X-Men #1 and X-Men #4 as your first post HoX issues, but beyond that, reading according to segment works great. Regardless of approach, the core takeaway should be there are 5 primary focuses of the Hickman run, tackling the “World of X” (aka Krakoan affairs), “Arakko and the X of Swords event” (aka the Apocalypse family saga), Nimrod & Mystique, the Children of the Vault, and X-Men Cosmic (which resonates most clearly with Hickman’s work on New Mutants.) This is the framework I’ll be using to consider what actually happened in this run, what questions remain unanswered, and where we’re going from here. In terms of framing, Hickman’s work on the X-Men series is primarily through the lens of Cyclops, Scott Summers, as he travels and interacts with various elements of the newly established Krakoa. X-Men #1 opens with Professor X promising to show Scott his vision for mutantdom, and through much of the run, we’re experiencing that in a similar way, our eyes opened to the new world of X-Men on Krakoa. From the first issue, Hickman is set on proclaiming this is a bold new era of X-Men comics after too many years of slow incremental changes. 12 of the 21 issues closely involve Cyclops, and indeed, in his pre-Inferno interview with AIPT, Hickman states this was the original focused intent of the run. This very much speaks to the scattered nature of the work, keener on showing a variety of aspects and threads with Marvel’s many mutants than any one centralized plot. Hickman’s World of X One of the promises of House of X and the Krakoa era of X-Men is seeing how this new status quo would manifest across the wider Marvel Universe, and how mutants declaring a sovereign nation state FOR ALL MUTANTS would impact everything from political alliances, to world economies to anti-mutant sentiment. Likewise, the stage is set for the truly fascinating exploration of building a nation in its earliest days, and all the complications that brings to the table. Krakoa announces this is a mutant nation with tremendous pharmaceutical advantages, and that leads to unprecedented financial power for mutantkind. This is the driving force for the best issue delving into Krakoan Affairs, X-Men #4, in which Professor X, Magneto, Apocalypse, Scott Summers and Gorgon visit Davos, Switzerland for a conversation w/ the world’s foremost economic titans. X-Men #4 stands out as such a great entry because of the ways it parallels real world power, governance, and as Hickman is fond of asserting, the ways the hidden hands of economics controls people. I don’t think it’s any kind of stretch to say X-Men #4 is the most directly politically and socially relevant issue of the run, and arguably the only issue where Hickman leans hard into the mutant metaphor and extensions to marginalized communities. Magneto deliberately and clearly lays out the strategy for mutantkind, making it clear that were once force would have dictated his actions, now mutants have learned dominance can be best achieved through money, and the control that brings, and the way it will define mutant influence of all aspects on Earth. Ironically, Magneto makes no bones that the strategy is a human one at heart, and that’s why it’s so resonant outside the fiction of mutantkind. Turn on the news any given day, and you’ll see countless examples of these lines: “Leverage people w/ debt. Ma
